There has been a suggestion that a smart device could be used to monitor schizophrenic symptoms and predict when schizophrenic patients are going to suffer a psychotic break. However, am I correct to say that this requires a degree of recovery? Myself and possibly many other forum users are always in psychosis, even when medicated, just not as psychotic as extreme cases…
Plus it could be a triggering idea to patients that there’s a device planted in you…our delusions could come true
I don’t see this as a completely viable idea

And, a prize was awarded for this idea for somebody from the Medical Research Centre. So much for understanding mental illness…

The scientists and researchers are always coming up with new ideas, but leaving the patient out. Hardly any of them catch on. The scientists and researchers are caught up in their own worlds. It’s like anything today: a new idea is going to change the course of history, but it never gets implemented or it peters out for lack of interest.

[/quote]What I see in the realm of science is a constant sensitizing of the schizophrenic nature. They try to make it seem like we are the most vulnerable & sensitive class of people with some form of diagnosis and require the highest or deepest methods of intrusion to curb symptoms.
For the record, I don’t need any additional help curbing symptoms. I’ll follow the same courses of life my ancestors did prior to all of this technological advancement in the sciences. Nutrition & rest is all I need, stop trying to sedate or control me.
